Couples’ Retreats

Couples who are short on time, but longing for time away, don’t have to travel far to reconnect and enjoy a romantic getaway. A stay at a local hotel or resort is the ideal staycation, offering opportunities to relax and to renew the relationship.

Staycations at a local hotel or resort offer something for every couple. Options can include cooking demonstrations and wine tastings for foodies, gallery visits for art enthusiasts and, for some, the time to simply relax and unwind in the room or at the spa.

Romantic Staycation Ideas for Couples

History Weekend

Omni Parker House in Boston is steps away from the Freedom Trail and surrounded by American history. The hotel itself dates back to 1855, and its on-site eatery Parker’s Restaurant is where the Boston Cream Pie was invented. The hotel offers a 24-hour fitness center, and guests can get more exercise by following the 2.5-mile-long Freedom Trail. The route leads to 16 historic sites including the Paul Revere House, Bunker Hill Monument and USS Constitution.

Culinary Weekend

A weekend in the Big Easy is a foodies’ paradise when staying at Omni Royal Orleans. The hotel’s Rib Room restaurant, which serves prime rib, beef specialties, fowl and seafood prepared on giant French rotisseries and mesquite grills, is a favorite among tourists and locals. Throughout the French Quarter are countless culinary offerings: cooking classes at places such as the New Orleans School of Cooking, fine dining at GW Fins and Restaurant Rebirth, and beignets at the renowned Café Du Monde.

Relaxation Weekend

Sunny San Diego is the ideal place to relax and unwind by the water, and Omni San Diego Hotel, located in the historic Gaslamp Quarter, offers a gorgeous pool deck that is open year-round. Nearby Coronado Island’s beaches are a perfect couple’s getaway, and Mission Beach and Ocean Beach provide plenty of rest and relaxation. After a day of sun and swimming, couples can enjoy a massage at the hotel.
